Most Similar Schools Locally

  • On content, State University of Telecommunications and this institution are close, as both teach signal processing, telecommunications and robotics; it covers AI and machine learning as well, and is larger, enrolling about 9,000 students against roughly 5,000 here.
  • The comparison with Lviv State University of Internal Affairs is straightforward on subjects, since both focus on signal processing, telecommunications and robotics, and it is also a public institution, and runs the same bachelor's, master's and doctoral programmes.
  • A good alternative in the same country is Odesa State University of Internal Affairs, which likewise covers signal processing, telecommunications and robotics; it is slightly smaller, at about 4,000 students against roughly 5,000 here, and is also a public institution.
  • Both schools build their programmes around signal processing, telecommunications and robotics, and Kharkiv National University of Internal Affairs is the one to compare first within the country, since it covers computer vision and AI and machine learning as well, and is slightly larger, at about 7,000 students against roughly 5,000 here.
  • Dnipro State University of Internal Affairs is the closest domestic counterpart for signal processing, telecommunications and robotics; it has almost the same size, at about 4,500 students, and is also a public institution.

Most Similar Schools Abroad

  • Abroad, Ryazan State Radio Engineering University (Russia) covers signal processing, telecommunications and robotics in a comparable way, and it is also a public institution, and runs the same bachelor's, master's and doctoral programmes.
  • For signal processing, telecommunications and robotics outside the home country, Moscow Technical University of Communications and Informatics in Russia is a natural reference; it is larger, enrolling about 12,000 students against roughly 5,000 here, and is also a public institution.
  • Xi'an University of Posts and Telecommunications, in China, takes a similar route through signal processing, telecommunications and robotics; it is also a public institution, and teaches at the same levels, namely bachelor's, master's and doctoral.
  • The closest overseas parallel on signal processing, telecommunications and robotics is Barcelona School of Telecommunications Engineering, located in Spain; it is also a public institution, and runs the same bachelor's, master's and doctoral programmes.
  • Escuela Técnica Superior de Ingenierías Informática y de Telecomunicación offers an international parallel to this school, with signal processing, telecommunications and robotics as common ground; it is slightly smaller, at about 4,000 students against roughly 5,000 here, and is also a public institution.

*our own picks (our criteria: a mix between domains, diploma delivered, reputation and size), but obviously too many criteria for an apple-to-apple ranking.

*: without any judgment of the quality, readers are strongly encouraged to check the official status of the exact diploma envisioned as many universities have a mix of recognized diplomas, not recognized, “co-delivered,” “equivalent to”,  “some pathways” (…), can change over time, and can be named differently from one country to another.

 

**: international reputation: is based on some criteria that do not mean much in some domains or specialties (number of researchers, of scientific publications, on budget ….). Our approximate 1-4 scale: 

  1. known locally
  2. known locally and internationally
  3. is listed in some of the world university’s classifications
  4. is listed among the 20 firsts in some of world university’s classifications

***: estimated numbers, based on online sources and/or feedbacks. The numbers can vary greatly depending on school organisation (ex.: school is part of a group, it employs internal staff or external consultants or has public staff without employing them …).
